Shaun of the Dead

Shaun of the Dead


This is the best movie we've seen in so long! It is genius. It is basically a satire on zombie (Dawn of the Dead movies) and it's a great one - when it's supposed to be funny it's hilarious. What takes you by surprise is the amount of sense it makes - and that the scary parts are actually scary (which you just can't believe but they are!) and the touching parts are actually truly touching. Every single person in the cast does an incredible job - you find yourself actually believing this really could happen.

The acting - superb - the script - amazing - the direction - fabulous. This is a very cool movie. We would like to see it again!

Had to travel north to Colorado Springs Tinseltown for this one - but it was worth it! Good popcorn and much larger theater - great movie!

Overall Rating.... Dare I give a 5 to a satirical horror movie??? YES! 5!

EDITED TO ADD - Several years later this movie is still an all time favorite. We had to buy the DVD and we've enjoyed it over and over again. That's the true test of a classic!
